One Love
Loving Across the Divide
Passion For My People
March 9, 2014 • Jumaine Jones
Can we be part of a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural church/movement and have cultural specific passions? If so, how do we deal with them in our journey of living as one? The Apostle Paul wrestled with the same tension as he found himself as a Jew called to reach the Gentiles. Pastor Jumaine concludes our current series, One Love, by sharing what scripture says about our cultural specific passions. == PASSION – GOSPEL = PRIDE PASSION + GOSPEL = TRANSFORMATION
We Are One

Like a body, the church has many members who are one. The church needs people like you, and unlike you. No one can say to another, “I have no need of you.” Pastor Jumaine continues to challenge us, in our current series "One Love”, to get out of our comfort zone and confront the age-old elephant in the room, known as church diversity.

In Jesus’ parable, “good Samaritan” (Luke 10:25-37), it’s not the priest or the Levite who’s the good neighbor, but the Samaritan. Rather than defining “neighbor” as the victim or the one in need, Jesus turns the lawyer’s attempts to justify himself on their head, and defines “neighbor” as the one who shows mercy.
